EETV EPG Airing Break from Wed 11 June

zulu17 — Thu, 05 Jun 2025 10:39:09 GMT

Notice that the EETV EPG has a lot of "Airing Break" entries for varies NOW/Sky Sports channels listed in the EPG guide on EETV. Channels with these entries include Sky Sports Tennis , Sky Sports News. These seem to start from Wed 11 June and continue on subsequent days. Expanding the Airing Break info gives "No Scheduled Programming". as the decription.Searching "Airing Break" gives 123 instances under ON Now & Later for current future programming.

Any idea what is going on with the EETV guides ?

The EETV/NOW EPG is populated by a third party company, with information supplied by Sky. What you are seeing sometimes occurs, given it is often on the sports channels, which by it’s nature has a lot of live programming, I suspect it is because Sky are still finalising the output. It usually resolves itself within a few hours, or the following day. Extremely frustrating when it happens but not a lot we can do but wait until it is resolved

Addendum: Sky’s online EPG only goes up to the 11th, although future planning past that will be ongoing of course

Well the (non supplied correct) programme information is available on I believe all sites other than EETV EPG so clearly whatever process is in place is falling down. If there is a third party not performing their role effectively then this should be addressed , out of interest who employs/ contracts this third party is it Sky/Now or EE or Youview ? The EPG is key to EETV Youview.

I normally report these issues when it is clear that the existing processes are not resolving the issues so in this case the issue has not resolved itself in a few hours or the next day.

You may well be right @zulu17 I have no insider knowledge other than what I observed in the past, and speculated upon 😛

No worries @GarethPrice -

There are actually also no sensible proramming in the EETV EPG currently for a further two Now Sky Sports channels from 5am Tuesday 10 June onwards for Sky Sports F1 and the linear Now Sky SportsPlus channel. Again this hasn't cleared itself for several days. (those channels have the "This is Sky Sports F1 or Sky Sports+) rather than programmes in the EPG.

Yes, I see what you mean @zulu17 , although I’m getting “F1 Highlights” on Monday the 9th and Tuesday 10th and “The Home of F1” interspersed with “F1 GP Canadian Highlights from Wednesday 11th onwards on the Pro Box EPG (F1 channel)

Same problem with Sky Sports F1 for the entire weekend from midnight on Thursday. Hopefully it will be resolved by then, I'm hoping to record something at midnight that is never on the catchup service. I've just spoken to a Chat person who appears not to understand the issue at all, and is telling me to do a complete box reset losing all recordings, which I doubt will be any help.

@MartinJSUK

This issue will be resolved later today, possibly into tomorrow 11th June.

Behind the scenes some services are migrating and causing these 'Airing Breaks'. This will stop happening as there is now auto reporting in place to flag the issue before they appear on the forward EPG.

@Sherlockbones Thank you for the information 😊

Thanks @Sherlockbones , I'll keep an eye on it.

@Sherlockbones Good to see that the EPG has now been populated, however the Indycar race is mislabelled as Indycar: Qualifying, not Indycar: Race in the early hours of Monday morning (01.00 to 03.30). Also LIVE preceding this is missing.

Repeat showings of the race during the following week are also mislabelled.

There appears to be an issue with Sky History channel listings ( both SD & HD ) from 7am on 19th June onwards now. It’s saying Off Air.

MartinJSUK — Fri, 13 Jun 2025 09:14:06 GMT

I spotted that it says 'Qualifying' and not 'Live' - hopefully it will still record, I'll try to remember to check that the recording is still in there before it's on. At least the issue is almost resolved.

Hi @MartinJSUK ,

There are some title and synopsis discrepancies we are investigating at the moment, these will be fixed over the coming days, and possibly into next week, before all are updated - I see the 'Qualifying' has been removed from the Title now. Thanks for highlighting.

Hi @Brucemeister5,

thanks for highlighting, this looks to be a variation on the 'Airing Break' issue we have seen lately. This is due to a change in of our suppliers and their migration of data - we have feedback this and hope to see a fix soon.

Today at lunchtime EETV Sky Sports Main Event HD guide incorrectly shows LIVE WORLD DARTS CHAMPIONSHIP: D3 S1.

The correct event as listed on non EETV guides is LIVE WORLD CUP OF DARTS D3.

The event is a simulcast of the EETV Sky Sports Action HD coverage . The EETV guide for that channel has the correct description.

So issues wth this supplier is actually impacting current broadcast programming on EEYV as opposed to future daysguide entries.

The State of Origin New South Wales v Queensland rugby league match from Australia tomorrow morning on Sky Sports is only billed as Live NRL on the EPG. This is disappointingly understating the 3 match series which most Aussies regard as having a higher profile than international matches. The women’s series is billed as State of Origin! It makes me wonder who’s supplying the EPG information.

Hi @Brucemeister5 ,

Thanks for highlighting, we are aware of some program title and description discrepancies on our EPG at the moment.

This is also linked to a service migration and we are working with the relevant parties to rectify asap.
